1. Place milk, vanilla extract, and butter in a saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat until simmering; remove from heat before it comes to a boil.
2. Whisk eggs, sugar, and cornstarch together in a bowl until sugar dissolves.
3. Set the saucepan back over low heat. Pour in egg mixture slowly, whisking constantly, until custard thickens enough to coat the bottom of a spoon, 5 to 10 minutes.
4. Serve warm or transfer custard into a large bowl, cover, and allow to cool before chilling - 2
Allow the custard to cool completely, then transfer it to an airtight container.
Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Delicious custard cream is essential if you are going to make cream puffs!I add the same amount of heavy cream to this custard cream, and use it when I'm making cream puffs.It will harden when chilled, so don't heat too much. Stop the heat when it has softened a little.Use any kind of liqueur you like.You can easily make custard cream in the microwave, but I think making it in a saucepan gives a smoother and tastier finish.

Caramel Custard Caramel Custard
I wanted to make a caramel flavoured custard for cakes. If you mix this cream with whipped cream, it will be vary tasty. "Urufuwan's"is cooked with just with plain flour and butter, so you could adjust the flavors later. You could use it for cooking or baking like this.This is a light custard. If you prefer it richer, replace some of the milk for heavy cream, or add 2 egg yolks.If you want to use this for filling buns, this may taste bland. Cook the caramel for longer and increase the amount of sugar. This cream is still quite runny after its cooled. If you want a stiffer custard, add more white sauce roux or decrease the amount of milk to find the thickness you like. Recipe by SALASA cookpad.japan -
